The Brossart High School faculty would be so proud that the Mustang Freshmen have taken the school motto of "Charity First" to heart and are actually living it out in their recent ballgames. Or maybe in the case of these Mustangs the motto should be changed to "Charity in the First Quarter."
On Tuesday of this week the Mustangs allowed Boone
County to open an 18-2 first quarter advantage before
battling back to make a game of it, and last night in
Erlanger the Mustangs allowed the home team to run out
to an early 9-2 lead before Jake Heil deviated from the
script and planted two perfect three point shots from
opposite sides of the court on successive possessions.
Two demerits for Heil - but six quick points for the
Mustangs and a 9-8 ballgame.
The Juggs would still manage to lead 11-10 at the end of
first quarter but that's where the Mr. Nice Guy stuff stopped. Reminiscent of the Boone County game where our Mustangs would outscore the home team 14-4 in the second period, last night they would lay a 9-1 wallop on Lloyd in the second stanza to take a 19-12 advantage to the locker room at halftime.
The second half would be more of the same as the Staangs limited the Juggs to only seven points in the second half, outscoring them 22-7 while giving up a total of eight points for the 2nd/3rd/4th periods.
Meanwhile eight Mustangs were putting ink in the scorebook, led by Tony Woeste who came from off the bench to lead all scorers with 8 points. Big Ben Weyman and Justin Barth joined Jake Heil with 6 on the night as the Mustangs claw back to .500 at 7-7.
